Marginal Victory
Scenario end
HQ (which was immobilized) Destroyed by last Iraqi mortar barrage
1 x OH-53 damaged
1 x M728 CEV put in for silver stars (and new ear drums) as they had been hit at least 6 times by T-55s before a T-62 nailed them
1 x Vulcan immobilized
3 x Bradly immobilized
2 x M-48A5 immobilized
Iraqi mortars destroyed by Bradley s firing MGs as they were out of 25mm
Most still mobile US vehicles were down to MGs only at end of scenario
Last Iraqi VP hex seized last turn of game by Bradley
Use of fire filters was a MAJOR factor in being able to complete this scenario. I set my units to fire only point-blank (250m) range with anything but TOWs, as firing at distant dug-in positions is nothing but a waste of ammo.
Most Iraqi armor/fortifications fell to TOWs as the dug-in Iraqis were virtually impossible to hit or suppress by anything but artillery/TOWs.
I believe the only vehicles the M-48 got was 1 x T-55 and 1 x BRDM-2.
Recommendations:
Court martial the idiot that sent armor/Bradley s with virtually no infantry support into the worst possible tank terrain vs a well dug-in and camouflaged position.
The ONLY thing that allowed even a marginal success was lack of Iraqi fire discipline, they fired as soon as our units were spotted and often at extreme range.
I note Wulfir did far better in this battle then I did.
